?Chapter 397:


    Ernst listened intently to Sabine and felt that her words were bing more and more inappropriate. The people around them started to take notice, especially Lilith, who watched the unfolding drama with an amused expression. Sabine misread the situation and thought Lilith was trying to vie for Ernst’s attention.


    She continued, “Didn’t Brenna force you out of the Harper Group and seize your shares? She has gone too far. She is clearly trying to monopolize the Harper family’s assets. I’m simply advising her to know her ce and not be so greedy.”


    Overhearing this, Dalton scoffed in disbelief and said, “Who do you think you are? Since when were our family’s affairs any of your business? I’ll hand everything over to my sister if I like, and it’s none of your business. Security, why haven’t you escorted this woman out yet?”


    Growing more entertained by the minute, Lilith watched the drama unfold. Brenna stood beside Dalton, watching the scene with aposed gaze.


    Meanwhile, Ernst was fuming. This wasn’t the Sabine he knew. She used to be reasonable, never mentioning the Harper family’s assets. Ever since he left thepany, she had been relentless, urging him to return, insisting that Dalton was only good at acting and had no real business sense.


    Now, everything clicked into ce. His mother had been right all along. Sabine didn’t love him. She just loved his money.


    Ernst said, “What are you even talking about? The Harper Group doesn’t belong to just me. I don’t even have any shares left now. What exactly are you nning to do here?”


    Sabine froze. Suddenly, she realized Ernst hadn’t overheard her conversation with Brenna earlier. Now, faced with his questioning, she was at aplete loss for words. Brenna had tricked her!


    Sabine whipped around to face Brenna, who was watching the drama unfold with a faint smile. Rage boiled inside her. “How dare you deceive me like that?”


    Brenna chuckled and replied, “I didn’t deceive you. I really did call Ernst just now.”


    First appeared in g??lnov els.??o??


    After saying that, she pulled out her phone and yed a recording for everyone to hear. Sabine’s words about controlling the Harper family and her desire to kick Brenna out were exposed for all to hear.


    A sharp smack echoed through the room as Giselle pped Sabine across the face. Giselle said furiously, “You haven’t even married Ernst yet, and you’re already scheming for the Harper Group’s assets? You’ve got some nerve! Do you really think I’ll bow to you one day, living under your thumb?”


    “Mrs. Harper, that’s not what I meant! Please, just hear me out…” Sabine’s voice trembled with frustration as her world crumbled around her. She had never imagined Brenna would be so ruthless in exposing her. She realized no one would believe her now.


    “I never thought you were this kind of person, Sabine.” Ernst was deeply disappointed, realizing he had consistently misjudged people and situations.


    Sabine still tried to defend herself, her voice rising in desperation. “That’s not what I meant at all. I just wanted to test if your sister liked me. I never meant to drive her away; I just wanted her to be more restrained.”


    Ernst retorted, “My sister doesn’t need your advice.”


    Dalton let out a derisive snort and motioned for the security guards.


    Without hesitation, the guards stepped forward and forcibly dragged Sabine out of the estate.
